State Road 662 (SR 662) is a short east–west route that runs from Evansville toward Newburgh.

Route description

History

Formerly a 4miles route that passed through Newburgh, SR 662 connected State Road 66 east of Newburgh with I-69 east of Evansville. In recent years, however, the highway was decommissioned through Newburgh proper, and now has a routing of slightly more than a mile from what is now I-69 to Ellerbusch Road on the west side of the town.
